What else can I help you with?
Which metalloids both are in group 14 and are used to make computer chips?
The metalloids silicon and germanium, also in Group 14,are used to make computer chips.
What are the names of 2 elements used to make computer chips?
The two main elements used to make computer chips are germanium and silicon.
What element is used in making transistors and chips?
Silicon and Germanium are the elements used in transistors
What metalloids in group 14 make computer chips?
The metalloids in group 14 that are commonly used in computer chips are silicon and germanium. Silicon is the most widely used because of its abundance and excellent semiconductor properties, while germanium is used in more specialized applications due to its higher conductivity. Both are crucial in the production of integrated circuits and microprocessors.
The element used to make semi-comductors computer chips?
Silicon is used in the manufacture of computer chips.
How did silicon chips change the way you compute?
Not at all, except for the first few computers I used (which were built with discrete germanium transistors) every machine I used was built using silicon chips. If the first computer you used was in the 1980s or later, you probably never saw a machine that wasn't entirely silicon chips. Even the germanium transistor machines ran about the same as modern computers, except the I/O which was usually very mechanical.
What metalloids make computer chips?
The primary metalloids used in computer chips are silicon and germanium. Silicon is the most widely used semiconductor material, forming the basis of most integrated circuits and transistors. Germanium, while less common, is sometimes used in high-speed applications due to its superior electron mobility. Other metalloids, like arsenic and antimony, are also utilized in small amounts as dopants to modify the electrical properties of silicon.
What is made with silicon?
computer's chips and contact are made with silicon.
What element is computer chips?
silicon
How is germanium used inside computer chips?
It is not, silicon is. It is not possible to make ICs commercially using germanium (mostly because its oxide is crumbly and water soluble unlike silicon's oxide which is a stable and insoluble insulator, which means germanium ICs must be wired by hand under a microscope which is too costly for production). This means that germanium is limited to usage in discrete components (transistors & diodes) only. Some work is being done using silicon-germanium alloy for ICs, but it is not in the market yet.
Out of what material are computer chips made?
Silicon
What are chips made from?
Computer chips are made from silicon and sand that has a high quartz content. Computer chips help to store computer memory.
